Datang first village

Chapter 657 Cabbage Is Really Good [Part 3]

Whether cabbage is good or not, cabbage is not important.

The output of this thing is huge, and it is convenient to store in winter.

After Li Yuanxing returned to Datang with many gifts, he unexpectedly saw Cui Yanyan when he woke up at dawn and had breakfast.Seeing Cui Yanyan who was serving breakfast in person, Li Yuanxing was so surprised that he didn't close his mouth for a long time.

"you……"

"It's the first time I see His Highness's expression, it seems that His Highness is really happy."

Li Yuanxing's first question was: "You guys came here secretly, and Brother Huang allowed it."

"It was the emperor who ordered us to come here. Sister Yuyan is sending people to move documents to His Highness's study. Recently, a record of all matters in the court has been sent to Admiral Tiance's mansion. The two chief historians asked to pick up the important ones. Come here. Wang Shangshu sent a telegram to Chang'an, and the emperor sent a few female officials who wrote the documents to come, and let us two sisters come to accompany His Highness." Cui Yanyan explained.

Li Yuanxing didn't listen to the whole thing, he only listened to the first half: "You said, move the documents?"

"Yes, where are more than a dozen large boxes?" Cui Yanyan answered truthfully.

Li Yuanxing twitched his face lightly, and then said: "You said just now that you should pick the key points and deliver them. Then there are more than a dozen large boxes, so how many are there if you don't pick the key points?"

Cui Yanyan shook her head: "I don't know!"

Li Yuanxing smiled wryly, and didn't mention anything about the paperwork. He just asked, "Is everything okay at home? The Haizhen sent by the king is still delicious. Have the nobles in Chang'an tasted it?"

"Of course it's extremely delicious. Princess Mingyue has said this, and there will be more, more delicious ones!"

When talking about this, Cui Yanyan immediately thought of Zheng Xiuyan, who was the most greedy. She was afraid that Li Yuanxing would ask, so she immediately continued, "It's a pity that sister Xiuyan is in Yaozhou, and all her thoughts are on those flowers. If she wants to get a hundred kinds of flowers." Cui Yanyan was determined to change the topic, so she immediately said: "Your Highness, there is one more joyful thing. Sister Yuyan, as a female official of the Qin Palace, signed a seal, Cui Changshi attached the words, and sent it to the palace. gone."

Hearing this, Li Yuanxing immediately put Zheng Xiuyan's foodie problem aside.

"What seal?"

"It's about cabbage. Sister Yuyan suggested that cabbage should be used as a material as important as food. Every state and county should guarantee the number of acres planted every year, as well as the management of cabbage's agricultural production, and the same as storing grain. Listed as one of the official reserves, we must pay special attention to it, if the people of the world have vegetables to eat in winter, it will be a blessing for the people's livelihood!"

After listening, Li Yuanxing really agreed.

You know, in the modern era of later generations, in the 80s, you still had to pay a ticket to buy cabbage, which was really a strategic material.

At that time, the old man could make countless ways to make cabbage.

Presumably, within a few months, a chef in Datang will come up with a whole banquet of cabbage.

After breakfast, Li Yuanxing came to the study room, which had completely changed. Several bookshelves were put in, and then the books and materials Li Yuanxing needed were arranged by category. Qiu Xiang and others had been working here for almost half an hour.

"Your Highness, this is the most urgent document in Chang'an, and this is the most urgent document in Jian'an." Qiu Xiang put the two documents with red labels in front of Li Yuanxing.

Li Yuanxing slowly picked up Chang'an's share.But he didn't open it, but looked at Qiuxiang.

Qiuxiang had already seen it, and when Li Yuanxing looked at her, she said, "There are locusts appearing two hundred miles east of Yanzhou. Eight thousand acres of young crops were destroyed. In the end, the county magistrate led people to attack with straw fire, and temporarily suppressed the locusts." After finishing speaking, Qiuxiang said again: "Your Highness, Shang Shusheng has also reported it, and it is estimated that there may be a large-scale outbreak in the future!"

"Go to the small village to order the small village to stop fishing in the sea. Just kelp and dry it in the sun. After the last seafood is transported by the flying boat and loaded with medicinal materials and cabbage seeds to deal with the locust plague, everyone rests and waits. Power on the military department and let the ten people who are reserved in Chang'an The soldiers of the Second Guards are on standby for twelve hours, ready to go at any time!"

Li Yuanxing just said, while Yuan Chun and Lan Qiu were quickly recording.

One uses a computer and the other uses a pen and paper.

At this time, Qiuxiang said again: "The Holy Majesty said, this time you don't need to worry about your Highness."

"No!" Li Yuanxing shook his head lightly: "I don't care about disaster relief, I'm in charge of another matter. It's not time to talk about it now, so go ahead and talk about the most important things in Jian'an!"

"Your Highness, there are many Goguryeo nobles here who want to negotiate with our Tang Dynasty. They can join us. But they have made some demands..." Qiuxiang interrupted him before he finished speaking: "I'm not interested in listening to their demands. Dare to call yourself a nobleman in front of this king."

"Yes!" Qiuxiang nodded obediently.

Li Yuanxing said with a smile: "Remember one sentence, the nobles of the Tang Dynasty are the nobles, and the nobles who have nodded their heads with the king are considered nobles. Why dare the rest be called 'gui' and 'scholar'. The secret order of the Tang Empire The Security Department monitored the movement of these people, secretly ordered the Ministry of War to quickly attack the inner city, and then dispatched [-] soldiers for the king to use!"

"Your Highness, if Li Shangshu asks why, how should he answer?"

"Tell him, whether it is a foreigner or an aristocrat, the king has the final say. After the source of troops is in place, quickly control the area between Beisha City and Anshi City, and put all the nobles on the neck of the king with a knife. The local people If they are recognized as benevolent people, then the king will allow them a nobleman, otherwise..."

Li Yuanxing smiled coldly.

Qiuxiang understood, turned around and signaled Yuanchun to record: "For those who are evil, those who have committed serious crimes will be punished according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty. Those who have committed minor crimes will be punished for the sake of the people."

"The Goguryeo people are poor, and they have nothing to eat and drink because of the war. Send people to look around, there are many industries that can be developed here, don't give them food for nothing, give them a chance to work, and a good salary is enough . Has Li Yuanchang arrived? If he arrives, ask him to find those places for me immediately!"

Qiu Xiang flipped through her notebook: "Your Highness, there is one more important matter. Before Wang Shangshu returned to Chang'an to face the saint, he left a document asking for a blood sacrifice!"

At the mention of blood sacrifice, Li Yuanxing was taken aback for a moment.

But Qiuxiang has a calm face. Doesn't she know what blood sacrifice is?

Qiuxiang understands.

"Your Highness, the opinion of Wang Shangshu and all the superiors is that His Highness is benevolent and naturally he will not kill and surrender. However, some nobles of Goguryeo, captured generals, may consider it!"

How cruel, when will Qiuxiang get used to killing people.

That's right, this is Prince Qin's Mansion, where sheep can eat people without using a knife.

"That's right, make up the auspicious number of people. Even if Gao Jianwu is thrown there and chopped down, the king has no objection."

Qiuxiang recorded it, and then said some trivial things that were not painful or itchy. Li Yuanxing would listen to these things if he was interested. If he was not interested, Qiuxiang would read them out one by one within his duty.

At the end, Qiuxiang gave a salute: "His Royal Highness, the last two things. One is that the servant girl got the document from the official department, and the maidservant gave the seventh-rank master of the Qin Palace. The second is that the surrounding area of ​​Jian'an City was abandoned during the war, and Princess Yuyan ordered Plant all the cabbage, presumably Princess Yan is busy with it today!"

Li Yuanxing nodded and understood.

Looking at Qiuxiang again, Li Yuanxing smiled again: "I want to see Qiuxiang in your official uniform."

Qiuxiang blushed, lowered her head and said softly: "Then go and exchange it for the maidservant!"

"Remember, you are already an official. Next time you call yourself a servant, you don't need to call yourself a maid. I heard that Jin Manqing was scolded by the old king for underestimating her status. If he hears that you call yourself a servant, he probably dares to act in front of the king. Cursing people face to face." Li Yuanxing was telling a joke, but Qiuxiang didn't dare to answer, and retreated after saluting.

Li Yuanxing stretched his waist, and said to Yuan Chun: "Yuan Chun, let the kitchen prepare, this king will accompany the two princesses to have dinner at noon!"

Even if Wang Yuyan wanted to have lunch with her, she wouldn't be free.

With his two maids and several officials of Sinong Temple, wearing the fifth-rank official Tang Dynasty uniform and the crown of a prince and side concubine, he was standing in the field and watching the officials of Sinong Temple inspect the soil quality. And the surrounding hydraulic conditions, to measure the amount of planting per mu without fertilizer.

Datang has entered a preliminary scientific farming mode.

This is called a farm road on the avenue.

"Report to Princess Yan!" The official wrote the result of the analysis on the paper.

Why is it called elementary, because 90.00% of the soil's pH, water content, fertility, and other values ​​are based on experience, and the remaining [-]% are calculated by simple technical surnames. The accuracy is so low that Li Yuanxing can't Endure, but also helpless.

"Three ways and five branches are actually planted, and the lower officials think it is appropriate."

Three lines and six branches are three rows within the width of one step, and each row lays six cabbage seeds within one step.Calculated in this way, one mu of land exceeds [-] cabbages. This amount shocked Wang Yuyan: "Are you sure you didn't make a mistake in your calculations? You must know that this princess is asking about the underfertility!"

"Huiyan Wangfei's words, the lower officials did not miscalculate. According to Shennong Palace's research on cabbage, there is a saying that one hundred tans of base fertilizer yields tens of thousands of catties. After the actual measurement at the Qin Palace's farm, there is even a value of ten thousand catties of fat and ten thousand catties of vegetables. Later Qin King Li Gongyi of the farm wrote the policy theory "Three pursuits are not as good as the bottom". Qin Wang's farm is topdressed with top fertilizer, and the maximum is four lines and six branches, which is [-] cabbages per mu. The land here is fertile, far exceeding that of Qin Wang's farm. The ground is fertile, so the lower officials think that it is three ways and five branches!"

Wang Yuyan heard that what the official said was well-founded, so he stopped refuting.

Another official said at this time: "The lower official also has some ideas!"

"tell me the story!"

"As for Princess Huiyan, the land here is vast and sparsely populated. Close planting increases the high yield per mu, but not the total high yield. Leaving some plots empty is also a waste. It is the best policy to reduce it by another [-]%!"

The officials who spoke earlier also echoed: "If the lower officials fail to investigate, if there are too few farmers and too much land, it is the best policy to disperse them!"

"You guys have worked hard. All kinds of fields are divided into sections and planted. Take [-] mu as an example, and plant it when it is well zoned. The land for raising mu should be selected first. This place is no better than Chang'an. Tell the steward here that the place where the mu is raised should be used as a guard against theft. , to prevent wild beasts from destroying. Tomorrow we will start raising mu. Let’s continue!"

Wang Yuyan was very serious. She felt proud and excited about her current status as a female official.

Female officer, it is impossible for this to be placed before Wude, or in the dynasties and generations earlier. (To be continued.)
